BIB
Had the same problem trying to find a plumber recently, Flowes.
Finally found a chap who was a friend of a friend and came at short notice to do a little job for us. I wanted to replace kitchen tap myself, but OH said no! I knew exactly what to do, but she didn't want to take a risk
Jack was wondering where all our usuals had disappeared to, but jack himself hasn't been seen since Friday???
had massive clearup day, lots to charity, some stuff hit the bin
and tennis was on, and now football, and inbetween had to FIX STUFF
Had a break but park benches were FULL how dare they, bench space invaders

Bird shit is grim .No wonder you dumped the clothes . Nice little win though .
It's very satisfying getting even a small win .👍


He's been kicking ass and having a good moan over in the Oscar the Murderer thread . Has his deerstalker hat on and carrying a huge magnifying glass as he sifts through the evidence . I think he wants to slap silly-Tilly Masipa for her arrogance ., but he needs to get to the back of a very very long queue .
Thanks Heather! Antibacterial everything was out in force yesterday! So gross

Taken up as in occupied , or taken up as uprooted onto a lorry ?
How's Oscar settling into the hospital wing of his new abode ?

shame France didn't get it, home soil and all
Portugal only won ONE GAME and won the tournament
It's not right, but that's the outcome.

I'm far to cautious to take this sort of risks

Thanks Rogana - I tried, Mybuilder, looked at Checkatrade, rated but no response from the highly rated people and also some recommended to me but I think I may have found someone through Streetlife. He's got excellent reviews and does all aspects of property maintenance fingers crossed. I've exchanged messages with him today and am going to phone him tomorrow to arrange for him to come and give me a quote.
if you drive past anyone having any work done, go ask them for their builders details and if they're happy with them once job's over, least you get a recommendation that way?
I've done that before when i saw some roofers

what's this about ?
EVIL's wardrobe ?
Had a very unpleasant encounter with a bird jack so much so that it pooed on us. Don't ask the rest it was just yuk yuk yuk! on the bright side won a lucky dip so maybe the sayings are true after all! Evil was shocked and laughed a little, Rogana was sympathetic to my clothes and Heather said it was grim and I agreed with all 3

Its' a shame, jack, but that's football, if only that header had went in, but what a cracker of a goal!

Don't you worry Auroora , that bird won't get away with it .Evil will get his dad to hex it (after he's stopped laughing ) .It'll be sucked into a plane engine before the night is out 👍


Jean ! 🙋 There you are . Hows the hand you karate chopped the frozen peas with ? All better ?

Annihilation begins, this was on BB website btw

Who doesn't deserve to be there
Who is biggest competition

I think they'll see Hughie and/or Jason biggest competition
I don't think Alex deserves to be there, he's brought NOTHING to the house

Top tip. Thanks
Also check they're listed on Companies House records
It's free to just do a search, see if they'd registered before under different name, then that would ring alarm bells

Call Federation of Builders just to see if there's been any complaints about them, but being a member doesn't really carry any weight sadly.

I'm not liking this at all
it all seems rubbish what's happened to "who goes you decide"
11 housemates having to gang up and choose unanimously to pick on 1 other housemate
to be evicted is just so wrong

Not as fancy as the cells in our prisons , some of them are reputed to be like hotels.
Single cells en suite, all mod cons for our cons and if the food isn't good enough they wreck the place, costing the taxpayer even more. Think this just encourages them to commit more crime.

it's done to create arguments,
We don't get to decide, it's always being more and more manipulated

morning people!!

I'm doing my first day back as supervisor after a 7 year break today, had my manager watsapping me last night with instructions for stuff I've never even heard about before so today will be interesting!

it's done to create arguments,
We don't get to decide, it's always being more and more manipulated
I tell you, if they use this as an opportunity to pick off Jason, I will be FURIOUS.

It's not right, but that's the outcome.
My family and I were watching with my bro and his wife who's a Parisienne and they're over here visiting us for a few days. There were a few cries of 'Merde!' from my sister-in-law, but otherwise they said they thought it was a fair win and France didn't play as well as they had. Basically they said, 'At least France made it to the final'.

And, as expected by me, my bro has interrogated my hubby and I as to why we think England doesn't do well in internationals anymore. Well, as well as a huge number of our football teams being composed of foreign players, my hubby reckons our players just do not have the same drive and passion for playing for England as other countries' footballers seem to have playing for theirs e.g. Wales. Hubby also reckons that's because these countries maybe feel they have to prove something whereas the English don't or can't be bothered to anymore. Anyone have any thoughts on this....Jack, Rogana?

I would love to be able to give my bro a decent answer but maybe it will always remain a mystery to us all.
